Where are Gold Coast property transactions processed?
Gold Coast titles, including the many community titles schemes for apartments, are registered with Titles Queensland. Settlement is usually completed online through PEXA or Sympli. The Queensland Revenue Office assesses transfer duty payable by the buyer.
What Queensland-specific rules apply?
Queensland has no separate licensing scheme for conveyancers: paid conveyancing work is carried out by, or under the supervision of, a solicitor holding a practising certificate. A buyer of residential property has a 5 business day cooling-off period that starts when the buyer receives the contract signed by both parties; if the buyer terminates, the seller may keep up to 0.25% of the purchase price. Auctions have no cooling-off period. Since 1 August 2025, the Property Law Act 2023 (Qld) requires most sellers to give a seller disclosure statement before the buyer signs.
How much does a conveyancer cost in Gold Coast?
Fees for conveyancers in Gold Coast depend on the matter, the lawyer's seniority and the fee model (hourly, fixed fee or conditional). Before any work starts, a law firm must disclose its costs in writing when they are likely to exceed the disclosure threshold.
